“Phylas wedded a daughter of famous Iolais,
Leipephilene, like in form to the Olympian goddesses;
She bore him in the halls a son Hippotes,
And lovely Thero, like to the moonbeams.
Thero, falling into the embrace of Apollo,
Bore mighty Khairon, tamer of horses.”
The Great Ehoiai , unknown location.
Leipephilene, like in form to the Olympian goddesses;
She bore him in the halls a son Hippotes,
And lovely Thero, like to the moonbeams.
Thero, falling into the embrace of Apollo,
Bore mighty Khairon, tamer of horses.”
Homer, I think, though he knew that Khaironeia and Lebadeia were already so called, yet uses their ancient names, just as he speaks of the river Aigyptos, not the Nile.
